‘NCIS’ season 12, episode 5 preview: McGee takes over

More news -If anyone wants to see McGee in a position of power (even if it is a temporary one) on “NCIS” season 12, the new episode airing Tuesday, entitled “The Sam Dominick,” should provide that … and then some other entertainment.

In the newest sneak peek video below, you can see Tony hand down the reigns to McGee while he and Gibbs are away than the office. They are going to be handling another urgent matter on the sea, as pirates are starting to disrupt what was meant to be a peaceful training session. This case unites the NCIS and the CGIS, and Diane Neal will return as Agent Borin in the process.

Save for the information that we mentioned here, including a guest appearance from “Supernatural” alum Jim Beaver, there is not a whole lot of information that is out there about this particular episode. We really anticipate that this is going to be just a standalone episode with not a lot of progression into any larger stories; after all, it is not an episode in the November sweeps, and really the goal here is mostly to tell a good story that brings some of the Navy actually back into the NCIS.

As for the McGee story, we really wish that there was just more of Margo Harshman around as Delilah. She is still a part of his life, but with the character overseas and the actress not on the show, we feel like there is something still missing here as a whole.
